I've been off-air for a few days, thanks to both home computer and laptop malfunctioning simulatneously. But what better day than the Marquis de Sade's birthday to return to blogging.
I've saved up a few things to post:
Matthew Engel on Lewes in the Financial Times
Peter Campbell on the De La Warr Pavilion in Bexhill-on-Sea in the London Review of Books (subscription required)
A longer post on some of the recent idiocies about class, public schools and Lindsay Anderson is also brewing.
